Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a packaging unit used for packing products such as drugs, foods, cosmetics and the like, and particularly to a packaging unit employing a tamper-proof technique.
  • package boxes In the field of drugs and foods, package boxes are conventionally known which include an openable portion for breaking and removing a seal of a lid by a push-in operation.
  • One example of such package boxes is disclosed in Utility Model Publication No. 50-33370 in which an openable and closable paper lid having an insert piece is formed integrally with an opening edge of a paper box body. Tear-aiding perforations are formed along peripheries of a wall portion of the package body overlapping the insert piece of the lid in a closed position and also joined to a predetermined position of the insert piece by an adhesive agent. These perforations define a punch-out portion that serves as an openable portion for breaking and removing the seal of the lid by a push-in operation.
  • This package box has one advantage that whether the package box has already been opened or not may be recognized easily based on whether or not the punch-out portion is broken along the perforations, and another advantage that the opened package box may be used as a storage case for the product since only part of the wall of the package body is broken.
  • the package box is exposed outside before it is opened, and it is possible for the adhesively joined portion between the punch-out portion and the insert piece of the lid to be broken and opened with skill from outside.
  • the conventional package unit remains unsatisfactory from the viewpoint of tamper-proofness.
  • the openable portion of the package box cannot be tampered unless the film sealing and packing the package box is removed, the tamper-proof effect can be enhanced.
  • a disadvantage of complicating an unsealing operation is caused by requiring a step of tearing the film along the perforations and a step of breaking and removing the seal of the lid by pushing in the openable portion of the package box. Further, the unsealing operation is time-consuming since this tends to involve the trouble of locating and tearing the perforations formed in part of the film.
  • the present invention has been made in view of the above-noted circumstances, and its object is to provide a packaging unit enhancing the tamper-proof effect by sealing and packing a package box with a film and further enabling the package box to be unsealed quickly and easily while restraining damage of the package box in time of distributing and displaying the product through a rational improvement utilizing a push-in operation effected on an openable portion of the package box.
  • a packaging unit is characterized in that the unit comprises a package box having a portion openable by a push in operation to break and remove a seal of a lid, and a film for sealing and packing said package box, wherein said film includes a fragile portion formed in or adjacent a position corresponding to said openable portion of said package box, said fragile portion being tearable by a push-in operation effected from outside said film.
  • the push-in operation results in stress concentrating on the fragile portion formed in or adjacent the position of the film corresponding to the openable portion. Then, the film is torn along the fragile portion and concurrently the seal of the lid is broken and removed.
  • a unique effect is produced due to the arrangement of the fragile portion formed in the limited position of the film corresponding to or adjacent the openable portion. More particularly, even when an inadvertent external force is applied to the film in time of distributing and displaying the product, tearing and damage of the fragile portion due to the inadvertent external force can be restrained, compared with the arrangement of the fragile portion formed over the entire length of the film sealing and packing the package box. Another effect of the invention is that the fragile portion is easily found since it utilizes the characteristics of the most noticeable openable portion.
  • the seal removing operation of the package box can be quickly and easily effected while restraining tear and damage of the film in time of distributing and displaying the product by a simple and inexpensive improvement of forming the fragile portion in the film in or adjacent the position corresponding to the openable portion, the fragile portion being automatically tearable by a push-in operation effected on the openable portion of the package box.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 2 of the present invention is characterized in that a tensile force is exerted on said film for facilitating tearing of the film when said openable portion is pushed in.
  • the film is torn along the fragile portion as the openable portion of the package box sealed and packed with the film is pushed in from outside the film. Concurrently the tensile force exerted on the film is released to contract the film based on a torn condition. Thus, the film is not restored to the original package configuration.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 3 of the present invention is characterized in that said fragile portion includes perforations formed in or adjacent a position corresponding to an edge of said openable portion which is displaced to a maximum extent when the push-in operation is effected.
  • the film can be easily worked on to realize low manufacturing cost compared with other conceivable structures in which, for example, the fragile portion is formed of a thinned portion of the film.
  • the film is easily and reliably torn along the fragile portion utilizing the displacement by the push-in operation at the edge of the openable portion where an amount of the push-in operation is maximum.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 4 of the present invention is characterized in that said fragile portion includes first perforations formed in or adjacent a position corresponding to an edge of said openable portion which is displaced to a maximum extent when the push-in operation is effected, and second perforations formed in a position displaced proximally from the edge of said openable portion and extending along a direction intersecting opposite lateral edges of said openable portion.
  • the second perforations are formed in the positions of the film displaced proximally from the edge of the openable portion along the direction perpendicular to the right and left edges of the openable portion.
  • the tear of the film is guided and formed through the second perforations toward opposite right and left ends at an upper end of the package box.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 5 of the present invention is characterized in that said fragile portion formed in said film has a length equal or approximate to a width of said openable portion of the package box.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 6 of the present invention is characterized in that indication prints for a push-in operation are provided on said film in or adjacent the position where said fragile portion is formed and on said openable portion of said package body, respectively.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 7 of the present invention is characterized in that said openable portion of said package box comprises a punch-out portion consisting of part of a package body overlapping an insert piece of said lid in a closed position, said punch-out portion having a portion adhered to said insert piece and defined by tear-aiding perforations.
  • the punch-out portion is torn and separated from the package body along the perforations and then the separated punch-out portion is opened in union with the insert piece of the lid.
  • the punch-out portion to be torn and separated as the openable portion consists of part of the package body, the length of the fragile portion formed in or adjacent the position of the film corresponding to the punch-out portion is also reduced, thereby to restrain an inadvertent tear and damage of the film in time of distributing and displaying the product.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 8 of the present invention is characterized in that the film comprises a heat shrinkable film.
  • a packaging unit according to Claim 9 of the present invention is characterized in that said second perforations are formed in a right and left pair to traverse the lateral edges of said openable portion, respectively, and wherein each of said second perforations extends to protrude laterally outwardly of an end of said first perforations.
  • Figs. 1 through 5 show a packaging unit for receiving a product A such as an eyedropper, the packaging unit including a paper package box 1 having an openable portion 1D for breaking and removing a seal of a lid 1B by a push-in operation, and a film 2 for sealing and packing entire surfaces of the package box 1.
  • the film 2 defines a fragile portion 3 in or adjacent a position corresponding to the openable portion 1D of the package box 1, which is tearable by a push-in operation effected on the openable portion 1D from outside the film 2.
  • the package box 1 comprises a quadrangle tubular box body 1A consisting of a pair of front and back sidepieces 1a and 1b and a pair of right and left sidepieces 1c to define a storage space S for receiving the product A, and lids 1B formed integrally with vertically (axially of the tube) opposite ends of the back sidepiece 1b, respectively, for freely opening and closing two openings of the package body 1A.
  • Each lid 1B has an insert piece 1d for maintaining a closed position.
  • the package body 1A has tear-aiding perforations 4 formed in part of an area thereof overlapping the insert piece 1d of the lid 1B in the position for closing the opening which allows access to the product A. More particularly, the tear-aiding perforations 4 are formed in the front sidepiece 1a of the package body 1A, and along peripheries of a rectangular section applied by an adhesive to a particular portion P1 at a transversely middle of the insert piece 1d. This rectangular section (also referred to as a punch-out portion) defined by the perforations 4 comprises the openable portion 1D broken and removed along the perforations 4 through a push-in operation by a thumb or finger of the user attempting to unseal the lid 1B.
  • the film 2 comprises a heat shrinkable synthetic resin film 2 used in common shrink packaging.
  • a biaxially oriented film made of polyethylene, polypropylene, vinyl chloride, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer or the like may be used.
  • the heat shrinkable film 2 includes perforations constituting the fragile portion 3 formed in a position adjacent and outwardly of an edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D and linearly parallel or substantially parallel to the edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D which is displaced to a maximum extent in time of a push-in operation, i.e. a deep end edge 1e remotest from a boundary P2 between the lid 1B and the insert piece 1d.
  • the perforations 3 formed in the heat shrinkable film 2 has a length (fragile length) L1 slightly larger than a width L2 of the punch-out portion 1D of the package box 1.
  • the heat shrinkable film 2 is heat-sealed at all seams which are joined with the entire surfaces of the package box 1 covered with the film.
  • the entire surfaces of the package box 1 are sealed and packed tight by shrinking action of the heat shrinkable film 2 occurring with heat treatment in time of heat sealing or heat treatment after the heat sealing.
  • a tensile force is applied to the heat shrinkable film 2 sealing and packing the package box 1 for facilitating tear of the film 2 when the punch-out portion 1D is pushed in.
  • the first embodiment employs a three-way sealing method. More particularly; as shown in Fig. 4, seams 2a of the heat shrinkable film 2 folded along the forward side (front), right and left lateral sides and rear side (back) of the package box 1 are heat-sealed along a first sealing line X. Then, hot air is blown to thermally contract the heat shrinkable film 2. Further, as shown in Fig. 5, right and left film portions 2b and 2c protruding outwardly are heat-sealed along a second sealing line Y1 and a third sealing line Y2, thereby to pack the package box 1 with the heat shrinkable film 2.
  • indication prints 5a and 5b of marks and characters are provided in a position adjacent the perforations 3 of the heat shrinkable film 2 and in the punch-out portion 1D of the package box 1 as a visual guide to the position to be pushed in.
  • a heat shrinkable film 2 includes perforations constituting a fragile portion 3 perforations formed in a position corresponding to an edge 1e of a punch-out portion 1D and linearly parallel or substantially parallel to the edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D which is displaced to a maximum extent in time of a push-in operation, i.e. a deep end edge 1e remotest from a boundary P2 between a lid 1B and an insert piece 1d.
  • the perforations 3 formed in the heat shrinkable film 2 has the same or substantially the same length L1 as a width L2 of the punch-out portion 1D of the package box 1.
  • a heat shrinkable film 2 includes perforations constituting a fragile portion 3 formed in a position adjacent and inwardly of an edge 1e of a punch-out portion 1D and linearly parallel or substantially parallel to the edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D which is displaced to a maximum extent in time of a push-in operation, i.e. a deep end edge 1e remotest from a boundary P2 between a lid 1B and an insert piece 1d.
  • the perforations 3 formed in the heat shrinkable film 2 has a length L1 slightly smaller than a width L2 of the punch-out portion 1D of the package box 1.
  • a heat shrinkable film 2 includes perforations constituting a fragile portion 3 formed in a position adjacent and outwardly of a deep end edge 1 e of a punch-out portion 1D and in a U-shaped line along the edge 1e and parts of right and left edges 1f continuing therefrom of the punch-out portion 1D, the deep edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D being displaced to a maximum extent in time of a push-in operation.
  • a heat shrinkable film 2 includes first perforations 3A constituting part of a fragile portion 3 formed in a position adjacent and outwardly of an edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D and linearly parallel or substantially parallel to the edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D which is displaced to a maximum extent in time of a push-in operation, i.e. a deep end edge 1e remotest from a boundary P2 between a lid 1B and an insert piece 1d.
  • a pair of right and left second perforations 3B are formed as part of the fragile portion 3 in intermediate positions of the heat shrinkable film 2 displaced proximally from the edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D and traversing right and left edges 1f of the punch-out portion 1D to extend along a direction perpendicular (crosswise) to the right and left edges 1f, respectively.
  • the first perforations 3A formed in the heat shrinkable film 2 has a length (fragile length) L1 slightly larger than a width L2 of the punch-out portion 1D of the package box 1, while the second perforations 3B extend further laterally outwardly than opposite ends of the first perforations 3A.
  • the punch-out portion 1D is 15mm in height and 22mm in width L2
  • the first perforations 3A are 25mm in length L1
  • the second perforations 3B are 15mm in length L3, respectively.
  • the pair of right and left second perforations 3B are formed in the intermediate positions of the heat shrinkable film 2 displaced proximally from the edge 1e of the punch-out portion 1D (toward the boundary P2 between the lid 1B and the insert piece 1d) along the direction perpendicular to the right and left edges 1f of the punch-out portion 1D.
  • the tear of the heat shrinkable film 2 is guided and formed obliquely upward through the second perforations 3B toward opposite right and left ends (shoulder portions) P at an upper end of the package box 1. This reduces an amount of operation to tear the non-fragile portions which must be done while pulling the heat shrinkable film 2, thereby to enable the user to carry out the opening operation of the heat shrinkable film 2 quickly and easily with a reduced force.
  • a package box 1 in a packaging unit according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figs. 12(A) through 12(D), a package box 1 includes a back sidepiece 1b integrally formed at an end portion thereof with a lid 1B for freely opening and closing an opening of a package body 1A, the lid having an insert piece 1d for maintaining a closed position.
